I really liked this one, but yet once again it was real sad. The little boy played a very good part, but the thing that got me the most was that I was confused until the end almost! I thought it was the son or the father of the baseball team until they fi

Twisty plot... I liked the sort of symbolism at the end with the matches and how the kid blew out the last one instead of throwing it in the water...

great episode. i understand that warrick wanted to make it seem like he wasnt making the interrogation obvious to the little kid and he gave him the cup of water, but if you think he's the arsonist, why would you give him matches to play with?? it was so

My name is Viva, Its not that common wanted to know if someone I know works there. I live in Michigan have all my life. Any one there ring a bell just woundering. I've never seen my name any where before...It was a suprise!

Pretty good episode. That boy is definitely out of his mind, and he's gonna grow up to be an arsonist. "I think mom was locking the wrong door." Nicely put by catherine. The other case was good too. P-i-s-t-o-l.

Pretty good episode. That kid creeped me out big time. Especially when he goes: "My grandma says it... My mom says it... and my sister says it... well.. she used to say it."

Not the greatest. I saw a few holes like with the guy who died over a game, why would he be so willing to swallow those tiles? And the kid who started the fire, his whole family used the word but how did he know how to spell it?

good epi. I agree with CSI- Balistics...how does a little boy know how to sell that word? Nick was hot :) not enough of him..
